[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can say something, as a big sister, but then you have to give her your full support once she declines to take your advice.  Say your piece, once, then let it go.  If it's a mistake, it's her mistake and it's a mistake from which many people recover.  [/quote]

Agree with this. If she goes ahead and gets a divorce by 25 she will be amongst many peers. Plenty of mulligan marriages at this age. She just need to lock down the birth control and not have kids. THAT is what will tie her to this guy forever. 90 percent of the people I know who married around that age were divorced by 25. No kids and few assets? Not that much different than any other longer term relationship that dissolves, other people just didn't make it official.[/quote]

+1. Also don’t think you need to say anything about him OP. Just phrase it as take some time, enjoy each other, start settling into jobs etc. No need to burn stages of life by rushing things. Now, if she is already engaged it’s unlikely she cancels wedding but hopefully this gives her pause about starting a family.[/quote]
